I agree an extra exit in Clontarf Road would be a good idea. In theory exit validation makes this easier, as you won't need ticket checkers at both exits. I presume this will be the case with the new exit being added at Tara St.

I've used the exit validation at Grand Canal Dock, but I have a yearly ticket, so I don't know if it keeps single tickets. This is generally the norm in other countries. The TVMs do give you a receipt if you pay by credit card - but you can't pay for a single DART journey by credit card. A simple solution would be to have a "print receipt" button, like you have on car park machines.
